The other day, I made what I think was one of my best meals ever on the grill…a Seafood Boil…well…maybe I should call it a Seafood Grill…you will enjoy this so much…especially if you are a seafood lover.

It is super simple and takes about 30 minutes, including preparation. Remember to shop local for most of these ingredients at the Carolina Meat & Fish Co.

Begin by soaking the clams in water with a touch of flour for about 5 -10 minutes…this will allow the clams to release any dirt. Rinse and set aside. While the clams are soaking, place the steam-in bag of potatoes in the microwave and cook according to the package directions…I cooked mine for 8 minutes. Cut the sausage into pieces and cook until they fully-cooked and browned.

Rinse the shrimp. In the tin foil pan, add a touch of olive oil to coat the bottom of the pan. Add the corn kernels, steamed potatoes, shrimp and sausage. Season with salt, pepper, Old Bay, and hot pepper flakes.

Squeeze the juice of two lemons onto mixture and add lemon rinds. Add the garlic, shallots and some fresh parsley. Throw in the cherry tomatoes, along with the marinara sauce and clam juice. Toss mixture to fully coat then top with rinsed clams.

Cover tightly with aluminum foil and place on hot grill (400-500 degrees) until the shrimp are cooked and clams have opened…should take about 10-15 minutes. You can toss a few times during the cooking process…just be sure to reseal tightly with foil. Once finished, transfer to a big serving dish and top with fresh parsley and lemon juice. ENJOY!

LET’S GET SOCIAL!

I am more than just recipes. I love fashion and style too! Most importantly, I love my Family (my Hubby and my Fur Babies). My Husband (aka my “Kitchen Bitch”) means the world to me. He’s pretty damn cool too. Not only is he one of the nicest guys you will ever meet, he also has had a lengthy career in professional hockey. Not only winning two Stanley Cups with the Pittsburgh Penguins in the early ’90’s, but most recently winning the Calder Cup with the Charlotte Checkers, amongst many other accolades. If you live in Charlotte and play hockey, or have a family member who plays, be sure to contact him!

Our life has changed dramatically in the past few years with the passing of our two goldendoodles, Vegas and Viva. We were lucky enough to have Vegas for five years (totally wish it was longer). Most recently, losing our Viva to a brain tumor in July of 2020. We welcomed our mini goldendoodle 7, almost seven years ago. We just added the amazing Hazel! Of course, I am always posting tons and tons of photos! Be sure to check out my recipe for Pet Bone Broth! This broth is super rich in nutrients and will provide your pet with a multitude of health benefits!
